Lives and works in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain

Urb-vanities, urban landscapes
I usually look for my images in common places, industrial estates, ports, urban suburbs ... spaces close to Marc Augé's concept of no-place, but which are full of humanity, identity and character.
Going through these spaces I feel like a juggler playing with lines, colors, shadows and textures, making them turn until creating something different .. with an order.
Among the most striking influences on my work are Krestez, Lee Friedlander, the "new topography" or Luigi Ghirri as well as contemporary authors such as Vari Caramés, Natalie Christensen or Sinziana Velizescu and of course Instagram.
